Notes (1)
- Same entry in other lexica; references at Photius pi952 Theodoridis; see also Kassel-Austin, PCG II p.97 (on Aristophanes fr. 144). The headword is evidently quoted from somewhere but is not independently attested. The verb is also spelled with omega as at pi 1804.
- 1See LSJ s.v. A.4.; cf. scholion on Nicander, Theriaca 295 (where
plo/on occurs). Forplou=s , see generally pi 1789. ↩
